HOMCOM Footrest Adjustable Height & Angle Tilting Platform Home Office Foot Rest Charcoal Grey

Working at home during lockdown, my wife had to raise her chair to meet our dining table so needed a footrest to stop her feet dangling in midair. I'm trained to carry out DSE assessments and this footrest looked similar to the ones used in my office, plus the reviews were reasonable, so we bought it.A month or so in and it's so far, so good. It has plenty of adjustment so my wife finds it easy to get comfortable, and if it's left unlocked she can flex her feet and ankles. She finds the bumps uncomfortable in socks or bare feet, but fine in slippers.Build quality seems reasonable, not up the ones we use at work but they are three times the price. With care it should last, but as with most things made mostly of hard plastic it probably wouldn't fare too well if abused.Downsides? Two. It's fairly high even on its lowest setting so if you only need a few cm of lift this might not be the footrest for you. And it creaks. We both work at the dining table and one afternoon I thought there was something wrong with the central heating. Turned out my wife was flexing her ankles and the noise was from the footrest. Knowing what it was I soon tuned it out, but if you're sensitive to small noises you might find this annoying. Although I suspect a rub with graphite lubricant (or a soft pencil) in the right place would soon solve it.

Good product

I bought this because I play the guitar for a good couple of hours. I find it comfortable for my feet and knees. The fact it tilts means my feet do not have to stay still.

It does the job perfectly. Love it

The footrest is a good design but the components are not durable at all. I have had mine for less than six months and already one of the rubber rings that's necessary to lock it into place has come completely apart. Fortunately it wasn't too hard to 3D print an adapter to make it much more sturdy - but for thirty quid I don't expect to have to repair something like this.

I wouldn't say it has miracle effects to relieve your foot pain as if it was your podiatrist doing an nice active massage. It is just large enough footrest to help you to rest your feet and keep a good posture in a passive way. That's all. It has 3 heights which is great to adjust along with your chair height, and some flexibility on the base to allow a soft resting instead of a hard one. Still, for its price I'd expect the top area to be even a bit softer, which I think would be much better for me (harder to clean though!).

Had this 3 months under my desk at work, kept in same position. One day it collapsed after I heard a snap and as you can see from the photo it broke.Have tried to get in contact with supplier but to no avail so cant even contact for a replacement.

as requested thank you
